Cynthia Saver's new edition of Anatomy of Writing for Publication for Nurses is a superb step-by-step guide for writing success. It is a book that both new and seasoned authors will want as a staple in their library. Truly a treasure! Bernadette Mazurek Melnyk, PhD, APRN-CNP, FAANP, FNAP, FAAN Vice President for Health Promotion, University Chief Wellness Officer Dean and Helene Fuld Health Trust Professor of Evidence-Based Practice, College of Nursing Professor of Pediatrics & Psychiatry, College of Medicine Executive Director, the Helene Fuld Health Trust National Institute for EBP Founder & President, the National Consortium for Building Healthy Academic Communities (BHAC) Editor, Worldviews on Evidence-Based Nursing This is a resource that just keeps getting better. I have an earlier edition of Anatomy of Writing for Publication for Nurses, and I cannot tell you how beneficial it has been to my own efforts at writing for publication. There is no more comprehensive resource for good writing and preparing for publication. And this contemporary, relevant, and updated 4th edition continues that foundation of writing excellence. I highly recommend this book for both novice and expert writers. Tim Porter-O'Grady, DM, EdD, RN, FAAN, FACCWS Senior Partner, Health Systems, TPOG Associates Clinical Professor, SON, Emory University This book is a treasure trove of information every nurse author needs at hand! The range of topics is extraordinary and includes the mechanics of the writing and revision process. As important as those chapters are, this book also includes other critically important content on disseminating one's ideas beyond the journal and the process of peer review-something many new authors do not understand but most editors hope they will aspire to! Marion E. Broome, PhD, RN, FAAN Dean and Vice-Chancellor for Nursing Affairs, School of Nursing, Duke University Editor-in-Chief, Nursing Outlook With great pleasure I endorse and applaud Cynthia Saver for the release of the 4th edition of this book. I am honored to have seen her work several years ago in a presentation to DNP-prepared conference attendees. Her thoughtful sharing of processes and insights is a testament to her dedication to enhance our profession. I'm proud to see her work and look forward to enhanced publications by colleagues that use this great resource.
